Abstract: An interview protocol based on V. Cass's (1979) sexual identity formation work was used with
13 self-identified lesbians. Data analysis yielded a sexual identity formation model similar to
]. E. Marcia's (1966, 1987) identity development model. Potential emotional and physical
health risks for each phase of the model are discussed, and interventions are suggested.
